Estimating the Full Multiple Regression Equation with PROC REG

There are several SAS procedures that allow you to perform multiple regression analyses. The basic multiple regression procedure, however, is PROC REG. This procedure estimates multiple regression coefficients for the various predictors, calculates R² and tests it for significance, and prints additional information relevant to the analysis.

Writing the Program

This is the general form for using PROC REG to request a basic multiple regression analysis with standardized multiple regression coefficients:

PROC REG   DATA=dataset-name     options;
   MODEL  criterion  =  predictor-variables  /  STB   options;
RUN;

Predictor variables in the preceding MODEL statement should be separated by at least one ...
